Python tool: Installing New Packages correct steps

ashirsat9

I am trying to install new python packages to the Python tool in Alteryx Designer Version: 2021.3.4.00445 (Running Non-Elevated). 

 

I noticed the article mentions activating the DesignerBaseTools_vEnv: How to install Python packages via command prompt

However, I got a 500: Internal Server Error on the Python tool after installing one of the packages. 


When I checked the page (Error: "500 Internal Server Error'" occurs in Python tool after flask is installed)  for the error resolution, it mentioned my 2021.3.4 version should be activating the JupyterTool_vEnv. 

 

Should i be activating that environment instead or does Alteryx handle that underneath because my packages were getting updated in the Python tool until I had to resolve the 500 error.

NOTE: The Python virtual environment used in Alteryx varies between versions. 
 
Alteryx DesignerName of Python Virtual Environment
<= 2019.2PythonTool_vEnv
>= 2019.3, <= 2021.1.3JupyterTool_vEnv
>= 2021.1.4DesignerBaseTools_vEnv

Please replace the "JupyterTool_vEnv" in the above commands with the correct Python virtual environment that you use.

That article is for 2021.4 and above. 2021.3 hasn't been supported in a few years now. I think you'll need to upgrade.
